Over the years we have had our fair share of brunches. Bottomless brunches, Drag brunches, and even Lazer tag brunch.

The event marries brunch to burlesque, for an enthralling new experience.

Restaurant Review: Seabird NY

by xoJohn December 23, 2019

written by xoJohn 1 minutes read

Location: 361 6th Ave, New York, NY 10014

Cuisine: Seafood

Cost: $$$

Overall: A quaint casual eatery with gourmet presentation and the latest destination to cure your seafood cravings.

If you are familiar with New York City’s West Village, you’ve probably walked by this quaint bistro once or twice. Seabird is located on the corner of Washington Place and 6th Avenue, a few hundred feet from the popular basketball courts of West 4th and just steps from the Halloween and Pride parade routes. From the outside, the restaurant resembles a coffee shop or bakery, but looks can be deceiving.

Overall: A laid back restaurant where you can have a night out that feels as relaxing as staying in. The perfect place to take your game night to more interesting heights.

Summer is officially over, but don’t fret, the fun doesn’t have to end. Bring good times indoors with our friends at Clinton Hall. Since their official launch in 2013, we’ve visited several of their locations and we’ve never had a bad time. The family-friendly bar and restaurant are known for its playful atmosphere, extensive beer list and delicious menu of comfort food favorites. Clinton Hall’s main purpose is to get people together. To further their mission each establishment has communal tables, shareable snacks and a collection of popular board and card games. If you stop by the 36th Street location you may even get the chance to try your luck at Drag Bingo!
